Sascha Rothchild answered David Martinez's question: Hello Ms. Rothchild, no questions, just a huge thank you for writing a spectacular debut novel. Loved it from beginning to end. You kept me up way past my bedtime, kept from going to a movie and a dinner party (“Not feeling so hot, I think I’ll just stay in”) …Absolute Fiction! I wanted to stay home and read your book! So thank you and congratulations! Happy Holidays, and will Ruby Return? Happy Holidays.. David Thanks David!!! Now I have FOMO on your behalf! I’m focusing on my TV work at the moment so might be some time before Ruby emerges. But some day!

Quotes by Sascha Rothchild (?)

“Guilt is not an intrinsically helpful emotion for future decision-making. And often the spiral of guilt and shame can lead criminals to remain criminals.
This idea was so intriguing to me, for personal reasons that should arlready be clear, that I later took it on for my undergraduate senior thesis. My paper, which I turned in six weeks early and for which I received an A, was titled "Remorse and Absolution: Peas in a Pod or Dangerous Bunkmates?”
― Sascha Rothchild, Blood Sugar

“He felt special by both being liked and seeming likable. I felt special by not needing to be liked by all, but being loved deeply by a select few.”

“And so I grew up. As normal as one can in a city as insane as Miami, in an era as schizophrenic as the 1990s, with parents as emotionally invested as landlords. I had killed one boy, one time. It wasn't like I was an out-of-control homicidal maniac.”
